Edit: to this rant because I think they deserve it. I’m guessing they did have a ton out bot orders that they cancelled because they are back in stock and my order went through.

They said they were combating bots. I tried checking out as soon as the new decks went on sale. I was going to get the limited edition. Once their servers finally caught up it said it was out of stock. I tried switching to the 1TB non limited edition and they said “you’ve been trying to make too many purchases”. I finally got through again and it said the regular one was out of stock. How was it not bots buying these of a regular user couldn’t get through.

I wasn’t concerned about the extra storage since I already had a 2TB drive that I swapped over, but my friend who I’m giving my og to was stoked that he’s getting a 1TB drive instead of the 512 GB
